Once again this year, the “Carry The Cross” walk will be held on Good Friday in Franklinton.
Shown above is a scene from last year’s walk. Organized annually by First Baptist Church of Franklinton, a total of eight churches were involved in last year’s walk. But organizers have made it clear that everyone is welcome to participate in the walk, regardless of where they might go to church.
The walk begins at 9 a.m. in the Eastgate Shopping Center near the former Dirt Cheap store. From there, the walkers will proceed on a long route to the Fairgrounds.
At the end of the walk, everyone is invited to participate in the Lord’s Supper.
